Testo aggiuntivo
"Perhaps the most noteworthy part of this text is that Hirsch truly understands the importance of having students realize and accept their own responsibility for their educational progress and development. In this regard, the text is practical, offering specific strategies to help students in academic jeopardy, but it is also refreshingly realistic in the goals it sets for students and the professionals who want to help them." -- Walter P. Rankin, Journal of College Student Development
